jessy created COMPRESS-194:
------------------------------
Summary: Unable to create a TAR file that contains an entry which
is >8 GB in size.
Key: COMPRESS-194
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-194
Project: Commons Compress
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Archivers
Affects Versions: 1.4.1
Environment: I am using win xp and Red HatLinux 5.1v, but this should
be platform independent.
Reporter: jessy
Priority: Critical
The common-compress-1.4.1 api says it supports unlimited file sizes for tar and
untar operations. [http://ant.apache.org/antlibs/compress/]
Only Untar operations on a file > 8GB is fixed,
But creating a tar on a file >8GB is not working.
When I try to do " tarOutputStream.putArchiveEntry(archiveEntry); "
i get the below exception.
java.lang.RuntimeException: entry size '9633985364' is too big ( > 8589934591 )
